Hi My lovely followers,

It has been a while since I posted but I was off with a broken wrist and it took a bit longer to heal than it should have. Then I just seemed to have lost my mojo along the way.  I was cleaning and purging in my craft room and it just made me want to get back into the creating mode. I created this card this morning and decided I would post it. The stamp is Sarah Kay and it is such a cute stamp. I just wanted to do a quick card for a birthday girl. I coloured the image with spectrum noir coloured pencils and I really enjoyed sitting down and relaxing with this image.

 

The card base is neenah cs, The designer paper I am not sure as it was a scrap I used. The blue is SU bashful blue. I used Martha Stuart vine trellis  border punch. The ribbon is also from my stash. The sentiment is from the Pink Stamper set country living. It has some cute saying in it.

Stamp Sets - Sarah Kay, Pink Stamper
Papers - SU, Neenah cs
Ink - memento black, spectrum noir colored pencils
Accessories- ribbon, MS border punch

I will enter this card into this challenge.
Simon Says Wednesday - must use a stamp no digital stamps  allowed

Thank you for stopping by to visit. Please comment and let me know what you think of this card.
Have a fabulous day!

Hi everyone,

It's Carol here with you today from www.happyexpressions.blogspot.com . Thank you Shelia for having me as a guest this week.

It feels like forever since I have posted anything. I know it isn't but I can remedy that right now.I am on the design team for the Fairy's challenge blog so I am sharing this cute card with you all. The challenge is to use a baby and faux or real stitching. I have wanted to use this cut file for a bit now so here it is. The file is a swing card from the MTC gallery. It is so easy and fun. I cut one in SU  pretty in pink solid and one in unknown DSP. I cut the ends off the DSP and added it over the solid. It didn't quite work the way I wanted so I cut 1/4" off of all the ends. Our sponsor is Bugaboo. The baby is colored with copic markers. E21,00,000,31, BG10,13,N0,2, Y 13 R20,81,83. I traced a circle around the image and cut it out. The background is a stamp sets by SU. Hello baby is also SU teeny tiny wishes, Itty bitty backgrounds are the small little specks right behind the baby, SU best yet baby saying is on the inside. The saying says "a little something for a little someone". The last two are old sets but goodies. The cute dragon fly was punched from sticker paper and MS glitter was put over the sticky. I added 4 of the blue green buttons on each corner with little twine bows. Clean and simple but so cute. Thank you all so much for stopping by, happy creating!
